Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "BACK IN SEVENTH HEAVEN"

Review by: momoN4738LR | Source: Trip Advisor
"No other way to describe Tiger Mountain Lodge. Spectacular setting. I said I would be back and yes, a very long way for a short cut but worth all the extra miles for my second visit. And my room back. Just like coming home. Great welcome. Nowhere else will ever be able to come close to the pampering given to all from morning wake up coffee right through the day. Pre dinner drinks and nibbles get the taste buds going. Also a good time for a chat.with Dol Raj and Jhalak. Wonderful imaginative food. Lalu and his team should start cookery lessons. My attempt at masala rumble tumble went straight in the bin! Hari has infinite patience and steady hands when out walking with non trekkers. Who needs mountains to climb when TMPL is so close and comfortable? Yes Saga clients seriously miss out. Such a pity as a two night stay on main tour plus three night extension would be well worth it. Marcus and team. Very many thanks for yet another fantastic stay. I will be back, even if under my own steam. "

Rachamankha: "Excellent restaurant! Best meal in Chiang Mai"

Review by: Anthony N | Source: Trip Advisor
Hi! This review is for the restaurant only as we didn't stay in the hotel. We had lunch @ the Rachamankha restaurant and it was the best meal that we had in the 3 days we stayed in Chiang Mai! The best khao soi we had during our visit to Chiang Mai! Also to be noted, the service is 5 star from beginning to end!

Jing’s Residence: "Wonderful and charming period style property"

Review by: Legolander706 | Source: Trip Advisor
We love this old style mansion with its many courtyards and beautiful staff. Centrally located in a fantastic preserved walled city, this property and city were a real highlight of our trip to China. The room we had was slightly small around the bed but had everything we needed

The Cabochon Hotel: "A Gem in the Heart of Bangkok"

Review by: JobvH | Source: Trip Advisor
"This is it! Don't come here to find the latest gadgets in comfort for the decerned business traveler, but make a visit to the past yet excellent in style and service. Enjoy the wonderful surroundings of a truly colonial style. What makes it all a really very nice experience is the personal service! Yes it is a kind of home. Your size is also comfortable as you will never get lost in a huge building, but you could get ""lost"" with all the nice decorations and artifacts probably from a personal collection. The restaurant serving a Thai fare is excellent. Also here the nice personal touch. Keep it up this way! You are definitely carving a very special place in the heart of Bangkok. Please do not be in a hurry here, as sometimes the Sukhumvit travel get you stranded. But then there is the BTS nearby!"

David’s Kitchen: "TripAdvisor is correct"

Review by: jclyak | Source: Trip Advisor
"This is an awesome restaurant that has relocated to a beautiful facility near the old city. (50 baht Uber ride). A most enjoyable evening, one I wish we hadn’t missed during our visits to CM over the past 7 years. We will not make this mistake next year. Thank You David for a superb dining experience."

this place is really beautiful.. classy, original, oriental, luxurious, art , architecture, procelains, century old chests ..what more.. this maybe the only hotel we stayed in Chiangmai but im sure and no doubt that this is one of the best in Chiang Mail.. the ambience are very tranquil the staffs are very friendly, free wifi, free insect repellent spray and walking distant to the old city.

Villa Song Saigon: "Indulged myself"

Review by: Allaround1 | Source: Trip Advisor
"Travelling solo and arriving jet-lagged in Saigon, I wanted to indulge myself in a little luxury before my onward journey. Villa Song lived up to my expectations. I really enjoyed my Writer's Room - all dark wood, sparsely decorated but tasteful with a charming balcony. I slept so well that I have considered smuggling the bed back home with me! The staff were extraordinary...very helpful for this first time traveller to Vietnam. I enjoyed my a la carte breakfasts by the river, especially the fact that they were served all day. Just right for jet-lagged, lazy, old me. I have really enjoyed my three - night stay at the Villa Song. To be recommended, especially if you need a little peace and quiet, in elegant surroundings from the whirlwind that is Ho Chi Minh City. "

Heritage Suites: "Wonderful stay"

Review by: Rob W | Source: Trip Advisor
Our trip started off in style with the airport pickup in the old Mercedes. The staff were welcoming from the start with cold towels, water, and a welcome cocktail when we arrived. They weren't full during our stay so they gave us a complimentary upgrade to a Bungalow Suite. It was a very nice room and we'd happily pay for the extra charge to have this suite again. We liked that the hotel is a more intimate size than much of what you see around Siem Reap and that it was part of its neighborhood. They let us know when we arrived that there was a festival going on and we might hear monks chanting early in the morning from the temple nearby. When waking up before sunrise to head to the temples one morning we heard the very beautiful chanting, apparently they had started at 4 AM but we didn't hear them at all from our room. We had breakfast at the hotel daily which we enjoyed very much, but didn't try the restaurant at other times as we were out exploring Siem Reap. We booked a guide to visit temples and the Tonle Sap via their companion company Heritage Adventures who we would highly recommend. A great visit and we hope to be back again soon!

Pool, cocktails and beach...we were staying 5 mins away at a private villa so can't comment on the accomodation but what an awesome place for a day or evening time out...amazing!!! Their cocktails were insanely great, beautiful beach, 2 pools to choose from and very friendly fun staff on hand!!! Love this hotel space. We came back 2 days in a row, first during the day then the next evening for beach cocktails!! Both very different and awesome experiences!! Highly recommend!! We'll be back!!
